Chamber of Horrors (1966) features the House of Wax set from Vincent Price's 1953 movie, and an over-the-top, Price-like performance from Patrick O'Neal as a ripper-like mass murderer in 19th century Baltimore. It's fun! #film #HorrorMovies multoghost.wordpress.com/202…

Two versions of a "true" haunting in Lille: one from a person who experienced it, and the other the result of the story being told and retold. Amusing to see the expansion. darktalessleuth.wordpress.co… #ghoststories

Check out the new VAMPIRES ebook and audiobook from @HorrorBabble !! They were kind enough to include my translation of "Family of the Vourdalak" amazon.com/dp/B0B53V9VV9 #horror #vampires

I haven't been following Nu-Trek, but I did see the first few episodes of Strange New Worlds, and I liked it. It felt very much in the spirit of The Original Series, to me. The Ghosts of Illyria, in particular, captured the horror vibe that was present in TOS.

So maybe I'll get my wish: Mario Bava's Planet of the Vampires, done as TOSish era Star Trek. Except Pike wins, of course. multoghost.wordpress.com/201… Advantage: it would *feel* like a TOS episode remake, w/o actually *being* a TOS episode remake...

This past week in 1841, Edgar Allan Poe published "The Murders in the Rue Morgue," and for whodunit lovers, the rest is history. To commemorate, here's a lesser known Poe crime tale. It's not a whodunit, but it's fun all the same! multoghost.wordpress.com/202… #ClassicCrime #mystery
